219 What if she attacks you
” Your majesty, your hair has gotten more and more silky,” Qui Ai praised Liu Hui Ying who was sitting on the stool with her front facing the mirror plate that was placed on the small cabinet with multiple accessories scattered all over the surface of the wooden cabinet.
Qui Ai was holding a comb in her hands and was skimming the comb through the locks of Liu hui Ying’s hair, as she combed Liu Hui Ying’s hair that was slightly wet because of the bath that she has just taken. ” I think the hair oil that Nanny Gong brought with her seemed to have brought with her, I am telling you that you should keep on using the oil that Nanny Gong has brought—— in just a week your hair has gotten this silky, I think that with continuous use of this oil will make your hair thicker in a few weeks.”
” You are right,” Liu Hui Ying had to admit that the oil was indeed a good thing, the hair that lacked a certain lustre seemed to have regained its lost shine and seemed to have gotten a bit longer than before making her want to run her fingertips through it. What a pity that such a thing cannot be found in the modern world, with all the stress she took regarding the solving of a case, she lost a lot of hair strands because she was busy worrying about this and that.
” Little Ai, make sure that you get the recipe for this oil,” she told Qui Ai who was combing her hair with a sharp glint in her eyes. ” I want the process of how this oil is made.”
” Your wish is my command, your majesty,” Qui Ai replied with a small smile, she was glad that her majesty’s mood was changing and she was no longer brooding over what happened today, maybe she should ask Nanny Gong and allow her to let her majesty slack off a little tomorrow morning and sleep in a little.
” And there is also——” Qui Ai wanted to say something more but then she was stopped by the announcement of the guard who was standing outside the room of Liu Hui Ying.
” Nanny Cheng wants to see her majesty!” The guard announced before a maid pushed the door of the room and then walked inside the room with her hands clasped in front and her head lowered as she rushed to kneel in front of Liu Hui Ying and greeted Liu Hui Ying, ” This one greets her majesty, the Queen.”
” You may rise,” Liu Hui Ying was still not used to being greeted like this but Nanny Gong has told her that this was custom and no one could ignore this not even the Queen even though she was sitting at the second topmost position.
‘ What is the point of standing at the top when I can’t even do what I want?’ Liu Hui Ying thought in her head before she turned her attention to the maid who was kneeling on the floor and then said, ” What are you doing here?”
.....
“It’s Nanny Cheng, she is asking for her majesty to give her permission t enter the room, I am here to ask for your permission on behalf of nanny Cheng, your majesty,” replied the maid who was kneeling on the floor, her head still lowered in submission as if she did not even have the slightest bit of guts to raise her head and look at Liu Hui Ying, she stayed on the floor like a good servant who knew what was due to her.
Liu Hui Ying nodded while Qui Ai’s face turned sombre, she was upset with Nanny Cheng. Everyone knew that the Empress was already having a hard time with what happened to consort Liu, she did not even get the time to move past the incident that happened today and now Nanny Cheng was here to make things difficult for her miss again, what was she doing here?
” Your majesty, you don’t need to meet Nanny Cheng,” Qui Ai told Liu Hui Ying with a stern look on her face. ” I will send her away, after what happened this morning how can she even think of coming to see you? Do not worry, I will make some excuse and then send her packing.”
“There is no need,” Liu Hui Ying however stopped Qui Ai who was already walking towards the door of the room with every intention to send Nanny Cheng away. ” I will hear what she has to say and then send her away by myself, it’s not like I cannot deal with an old woman.”
“But your majesty,” Qui Ai was very reluctant to let that woman meet her mistress because she knew that Nanny Cheng would try to hurt Liu Hui Ying again, she knew that the Dowager Empress sent Nanny Cheng to the courtyard of the Empress but Qui Ai was not a fool who will think that Nanny Cheng would not do anything to the Empress and would stay loyal to her after all who did not see her attack the Empress?
” What if she attacks you again?” Qui Ai tried to change the mind of her mistress, she did not want that senile old woman and her mistress in the same room at all.
” You do need to worry about anything as such,” Liu Hui Ying waved her hand and quickly reminded her of the time when she took care of the maid who tried to make use of her name. ” Do you think that I need anyone to help me at all? If I want to stop that woman from attacking me then I can certainly do so, you should not worry about me instead worry about the old woman who will be with me in the room.” Liu Hui Ying smiled at Qui Ai with a confident smile causing the latter to be stunned by the impact of her smile.
